Acceleo can be downloaded and installed in a number of ways. If you have an existing Eclipse installation and simply wish to install Acceleo in it, installing through the update site is the easiest way. If you'd rather install a new Eclipse with Acceleo, you may want to take a look at the facilities provided by the amalgamation project.

For those of you that need to retrieve the zips of Acceleo, you can look at the latest releases.

Note that whatever the installation procedure you choose, examples are available from the menu right-click => New => Examples => Acceleo Plug-ins.

Select this new update site in the combo box and tick Acceleo in the lower panel, such as shown below.

Click Finish, read and accept the Eclipse Public License, and watch Acceleo install itself along with its dependencies.
